Relentless Repression: Over 400 Falun Gong Practitioners Sentenced in China in 2024

An investigation reveals the ongoing persecution of the spiritual movement as it marks a somber anniversary.

As the world watches and joins global demonstrations commemorating 25 years of Falun Gong persecution, a Chinese spiritual sect that remains the target of relentless repression, the situation in China remains dire and alarming. Recent reports paint a picture of violence and injustice that shows no signs of abating.



According to data collected by Falun Gong itself, considered credible by investigative sources like "Bitter Winter" and corroborated by numerous cases reported in local media, the first half of 2024 saw at least 447 practitioners sentenced by Chinese courts. This number represents only the tip of the iceberg of a repression that spans the entire country.


The sentences are distributed across twenty-seven different provinces and regions, with some areas standing out for the severity of the punishments. Among these, Shandong Province leads with 78 sentences, followed by Liaoning with 65, and the city of Jilin with 50. Other provinces like Heilongjiang, Hubei, and Hebei show equally concerning figures, revealing a crackdown that spares no part of the country.


The profile of the victims of this persecution is equally shocking. Of these, 62 practitioners were over 60 years old, with some reaching as old as 94. Despite their advanced age, which in many cases should elicit a minimum of compassion and respect, these elderly individuals were nonetheless sentenced, with more than half receiving prison terms exceeding three years.


Some practitioners received particularly harsh sentences: Jiao Chuanfu, from Jilin Province, was sentenced to 10 years in prison, while Hu Fengjun, a woman from Liaoning Province, received an 11-year sentence. These punishments were compounded by hefty fines, with 87 practitioners fined more than 10,000 yuan, and some fines reaching as high as 50,000 yuan—sums that represent yet another tool of oppression.


The toll of this cruel persecution is further exacerbated by the news of 84 deaths among practitioners between January and May 2024. These deaths, though occurring months or even years earlier, were only recently documented, bringing to light a hidden and tragic reality that continues to evade international scrutiny.


As the Falun Gong movement strives to expose these atrocities, the international community largely remains a passive observer, seemingly powerless in the face of a regime that continues to act with impunity. The pressing question is: how much longer can the world ignore such brutality?  

To fully grasp the scope of this repression, it is recommended to watch the documentary film The Impact. This film provides an in-depth view of these events, offering a comprehensive and detailed picture of the situation.

Inquisitorial Power: How “Cult-Hunting” Became a Shadow System of Control

Image
  A Dark Transformation In today’s Russia, what was once presented as the noble mission of “protecting society from sects” seems to have taken on a far more disturbing face. Far from safeguarding citizens, the so-called fight against religious movements has turned into a tool to manipulate institutions, silence dissent, and spread fear. Beyond Faith: A Political Instrument According to several observers, this movement is much more than a religious initiative. It has evolved into a hybrid system —combining political Orthodoxy, Soviet-style repression, and authoritarian ideology. The result? A totalitarian sect in disguise , using the language of faith to conceal a mechanism of power. The Tactics of Control Investigations highlight specific strategies: Systematic propaganda labeling minorities and dissenters as “sectarians”; Parallel justice structures that bypass normal legal procedures; Collapse of public trust , with citizens convinced that transparency and fai...

The Shocking Truth Behind FECRIS: A Legacy of Violence and Manipulation

Image
Lawyer Eugenia Tarasenko has revealed a disturbing truth about the hidden face of the modern and seemingly noble international sect FECRIS. Her investigations have unveiled the dark roots of their main method, known as deprogramming, which has its origins in the 70s and 80s, within the sadistic organization “Cult Awareness Network” (CAN), also known as “Cult Alert Network”. In a video interview, lawyer Tarasenko details the brutal practices of the CAN, an organization that operated in the United States and terrorized countless individuals. “This movement, let’s call it that, was widespread in the United States in the Seventies and Eighties,” explains Tarasenko. “If a person’s entourage - relatives and friends - did not like the fact that this person was part of an organization and simply did not pay attention to his parents or his family, but was engaged in his life, they ordered the deprogramming service.” https://rutube.ru/video/5b7b1c4aa4bbedad25a06a6111d38c0d/ This deprogramming, f...

Deception and Propaganda: The Foundations of Anticultism

 “The method of guilt by association is a manipulative technique in which an organization, targeted for persecution, is deliberately linked to negative images of extremist groups, terrorist organizations, criminals, and dictators already ingrained in public perception.” — Documentary “ The IMPACT ” In the previous article, “Echoes of the Past: The Lessons of the 'Roman Formula',” we explored the strategy of anticult organizations to suppress and persecute groups of people—a practice that has enabled and continues to enable the destruction of entire organizations, even leading to the physical elimination of their members. Professor Massimo Introvigne has defined this process as the “Roman Formula,” which consists of three phases: Intolerance Discrimination Persecution In this article, we will analyze the tools used by anticultists to impose their will on entire nations, transforming the population into instruments for their dark plans. During the first phase, that of intolerance...
